The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 6,800 times in 2014. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 6 trips to carry that many people.

Wearing out the seams of life
Stretching materialistic dues
Past limits with enough strife
Overlooking what we knew
Inspired by Three Words a Day
No? Well it’s not too late and now is the perfect time as many talented artists are being showcased together in the Season ending award series.
It’s the kind of place where all sorts of talent and magic are performed. I was lucky and wandered into The Neighborhood in 2014, and then was personally invited by the multi-talented Kendall Pearson to join an Original Series over the summer, which was both terrifying and exciting at the same time. Now, I can say that The Neighborhood is an environment that fosters a community of comradery and offers support – I am not afraid. However, I am grateful for the opportunities in 2014 to flex my creative muscle and contribute, and I look forward to more adventures in 2015 together.

Infinite possibilities
Secured within our arms reach
We make a really great speech
Never practicing what’s preached
Subvert our capabilities
One day we’ll learn what we teach
This Christmas season
I wanted to be the Grinch
Again, I held out
Started having some regrets
That lead to power shopping

Okay it’s been a while since I’ve set it to shuffle and played Cosmic Musicology with Steve and I’m mostly happy, so here we go.
What makes me laugh? Heresy, Nine Inch Nails
Comments: Never trust “heresy” it’s worse than ASSuming.
What makes me cry? Breathe Me, Sia
Comments: The lyrics of this tune are submerged in melancholy and the tone and tempo is so depressing, it’s hard not to cry when listening to this song. But it is pretty great to listen to when you want to have a pity party.
What makes me mad? Missing Pieces, Jack White
Comments: This is truth! I hate missing pieces, ingredients and people.
It looks like the music Gods were looking down upon me today as everything makes perfect sense and I’m glad I played. Now, it’s your turn let’s see what’s hidden in your musical stars… For complete instructions visit Cosmic Musicology with Steve (link above) and if you want to listen to my other songs, just click the title links.

Bright shimmering lights
Cast from high in the sky
While taking in the sights
Guess what it was I spied
Without any warning
The Wizard walked by
It was a great morning
I believed I could fly
“Never talking
Just keeps walking
Spreading his magic”
Always at my side
Bracing my spirit
Pushing my strides
Beyond my limits
Cool wind relieves
My heated cheeks
I’m starting to believe
Yet, he never speaks
“Never talking
Just keeps walking
Spreading his magic”
Along the path we go
Feathers drift around
Together we do stroll
Covering vast ground
~During today’s walk I was inspired by The Wizard, Black Sabbath
